Please Refrain From Saying 'god Bless You' by OZAOEKPE(f): 12:54pm On Sep 13, 2015
A Texas college syllabus asked students to refrain
from saying “God bless you.”
“Please refrain from saying ‘God bless you’ during
classes and exams,” read one University of Texas
Rio Grande Valley professor’s syllabus.
The college said in a statement that “the
professor's syllabus sought to identify examples
of potentially disruptive behavior the professor
believed could hinder the classroom learning
environment, including use of cellphones.”
UTRGV added that the professor’s intention was
not to limit religious freedom, “but to avoid
unsolicited comments that might distract others."
The professor has since removed the sentence
from the syllabus.
